He Wasn't There (Acoustic) Lyrics

He wasn't there when I needed him
No, he was never around
His reputation was preceding him
And he was out on the townIt didn't matter if he let me down
I didn't care about the lies
But all I knew was that he loved me very much
He was my hero in disguiseI'm so pleased I never gave up on him
Oh, well you wouldn't believe some of the things that he did
And everyone said you have to give him some time
And I'm glad that I gave it to him 'cause now everything's fineNow you see I never thought you'd be
A constant person in my life
And I don't think that you would be
If you'd have stayed with your ex wifeI know you wouldn't but there is no need
No need to apologize
Because I know you'll always love me very much
You are my hero in disguiseI'm so pleased I never gave up on him
Oh, well you wouldn't believe some of the things that he did
And everyone said you have to give him some time

And I'm glad that I gave it to him 'cause now everything's fineYou might have thought you didn't teach me much
But you taught me right from wrong
And it was when you didn't keep in touch
Well, it taught me to be strongAnd just in case you ever thought I would
I wouldn't change you for the world
Because I know you'll always love me very much
I'll always be your little girlI'm so pleased I never gave up on him
Oh, well you wouldn't believe some of the things that he did
And everyone said you have to give him some time
And I'm glad that I gave it to him 'cause now everything's fine
